struck by an object such as a hand, foot or loose
cargo. To avoid accidental deployment of the Ac-
tive Head Restraint ensure that all cargo is secured,

restraint until it locks in place. The outboard head
restraints are not removable. The center head restraint has limited adjustment. Lift

ward on the head restraint to lower it.
